What’s Going On With Alix Earle & Alex Cooper?
The girls are fighting...
The lingering beef between Call Her Daddy podcast host Alex Cooper and social media personality plus new entrepreneur Alix Earle is finally coming to light.
There have been claims of passive aggression, professional drama and direct call out videos. Here’s everything that’s been going on between the two and where it all possibly started from.
The feud seems to go back as far as 2023, when Alix Earle launched her podcast Hot Mess under Alex Cooper’s podcast network, Unwell.

The podcast went on for two years and then in 2025 the Unwell network dropped Hot Mess, amidst rumours that something had gone wrong behind the scenes. Then when Earle skipped a Superbowl party hosted by the network, the speculation only furthered.
Neither Cooper nor Earle ever gave a full explanation as to what happened during that time. The closest we got was Cooper posting a photo to her Instagram story captioned with “Hi, I see your comments. Alix not being able to podcast has nothing to do with Unwell.

“Idk why she can’t/what’s going on. Unwell gave her everything back. She owns her IP. Learned from the best’’. She then tagged the creator of Barstool Sports, who used to network Call Her Daddy.
The beef was then dropped (publicly anyway) until recently when Earle reposted a TikTok calling out the Call Her Daddy host. The reposted TikTok claimed Cooper profited off women’s most vulnerable moments, and called her an “ambulance chaser.”

A few days after the repost Cooper went directly to TikTok and shared her own video, “Hey, guys. You guys know I don’t usually address this kind of stuff because it feels like a waste of time and honestly, it’s embarrassing to participate in this.
“But I am obviously seeing the videos, I’m getting tagged, I see the DMS, I see the comments. So, at this point it just feels long overdue.’’
She then proceeded to directly call out Alix Earle for seemingly creating false beef: “Alix Earle. Hey, girl. The passive aggressive reposts and the likes and the commenting on things, I gotta call you out here.

“You’re gonna need to get specific and just say what you got to say about me. There’s no NDA. No one is stopping you. Stop hiding behind other people and just say it yourself. What’s the beef?’
“Cause I’m really tired of waking up and seeing you using this fake drama, to distract from other shit going online for you. Not interested. I know what happened, and so do you. So, unless the fake narrative that you’re creating happens to be way more interesting than the truth.
“I have nothing to hide when it comes to you and me. So, unless you actually have something to say, I’m out. This is over. Have a good Monday, everyone.’’
Earle has since reposted this call out TikTok and commented on the video, “Okay on it!!” Excuse me?
Creator of Barstool Sports, Dave Portnoy, also shared a five-minute video addressing the drama, having worked with both women at different times in the past.
He claimed that the issue is less of a personal fallout but more of a business dispute. He also said the feud may have begun in 2025 when Alix Earle was placed in a Carl’s Jr advertisement for the Superbowl, a job that Alex Cooper also apparently wanted.
TV personality Bethenny Frankel also shared a video to her TikTok stating that Alex and Alix’s “relationship was predicated on business… so while they may have seemed friendly while working together, it’s still a transactional relationship that is conditional.”

So now we simply have to sit and wait to hear the other side of the drama from Earle’s perspective… unless it’s all a publicity stunt, that is.
Earle recently launched her new skincare brand Reale Actives, so could this potentially be a fake feud to drum up more interest in the brand?
Either way, I’m sure we’ll know soon enough. Or not.
